with chestnut ; one is ihcstnut obscurely handed with yellow ; one is 

 short, chestnut colored. 



4274. '■'■Partula T'aria Brod. var., Huaheine." On the Ijack of 

 the card is written : '* This shell in Acad. Nat. Science is marked 

 F. strigata Pse. e.v auctore." Regarding this note see Proc. Acad. 

 Nat. Sc. Phila., 1885, p. 219, where the name is ])rinted strii^osa 

 Pse. (cf. No. 4259). The Academy specimen led Dr. Hartman to 

 l>]ace P. strigata among the synonyms of 7'aria in his first catalogue, 

 18S1 : subsequently the mistake was corrected. Twelve specimens, 

 ashy, ochraceous or whitish, with a narrow purplish line above the 

 suture. 



4275. "Partula bicolor Garr. MS., Huaheine." Five specimens, 

 somewhat inflated, yellowish, with one or two whorls of the spire 

 purj)le brown. Included among the synonyms of P. varia Brod.' in all 

 Dr. Hartman's catalogues. This is not P. bicolor Pse., No. 4162, 

 though originally (larrett may have suppo.sed that bicolor Pse. was the 

 same as his shell, which somewhat resembles it. In his MS. catalogue 

 probably written about 1881, he gives" bicolor Pse., Guam," and 

 bicolor Garr. MS. as a variety oi 7'aria. 



4276. Partula glutiiwsa Pfr. , Huaheine, Coll. Pse." On the back 

 of the card is written : " Examples like these in Coll. Cox from Turner, 

 N. Hebrides, not correct; these are from Huaheine." Nine speci- 

 mens, larger than any of the other varieties of P. varia, yellow or 

 pale, sometimes clouded around the umbilicus, and with the lower 

 half of the lip purple tinted. In his catalogue of Partula, 1881, Dr. 

 Hartman gives this as a valid species ; subsequently he treats it as 

 a variety of varia, in which he agrees with Garrett. See Proc. Acad. 

 Nat. Sc. Phila., 1885, pp. 218-219. 



4277. ^'Partula perplexa'P?,^. MS. (type) (typical, H. H. S.), Hua- 

 heine, Coll. Pse." Five specimens. Four are yellow with the spire 

 white, suture and lower part of the body whorl castaneous, the dark 

 color appearing on the inner surface and lip as a purple tint. These 

 shells, in color, are exactly like the pur])le-banded specimens of P. 

 cognata Pse. (= rosea Brod.), No. 4270 ; in size and form they are 

 like No. 4275 and some of the specimens included under varia, No. 

 4273. The fifth specimen (perhaps introduced for comparison) is a 

 dark example of varia with a yellow peripheral band. P. perplexa is 

 included among the synonyms of 7'rt'r/Vz in all Dr. Hartman's catalogues. 

 It is not mentioned in the Garrett MS. catalogue.
